Abstract (en)
A medical instrument sterilization backer card includes a flap extending from an end of a base and foldable over the base to form an open-ended pocket that receives an end of a shaft of the medical instrument therein. A second flap extends from the base and is foldable over the base to form a shell defining a compartment configured to receive a head of the medical instrument therein. The assembled backer card holds and protects the medical instrument during and after sterilization.
